Every episode of Arthur has an intertitle which displays the title, the name(s) of the writer and storyboard editor, and a short animation encompassed within a center circle. With the exception of early episodes, the title is read aloud by either Binky, Buster, Francine, or Muffy. After Season 1, the typeface for episode titles was modified. The title names were enlarged starting with Season 10. Starting with Season 14, the center circle now features a scene from each episode and no longer uses the ones shared for the corresponding episodes.
